The Port of Saint-Tropez 1905

"The Port of Saint-Tropez" (1905) by Albert Marquet captures the essence of the French Riviera. Marquet's vibrant use of color, particularly the bright blue sky and the reflective water, evokes the sun-drenched atmosphere of the region. The scene showcases the harbor with moored boats and the town's architecture, with its whitewashed houses and a church steeple in the distance. The painting's loose brushstrokes contribute to its Impressionistic style, emphasizing the fleeting nature of light and the movement of water.
